I recall that after 9/11, when all US flights were canceled, there was a statistically detectable bump in average temperature. Something about jet contrails disappearing for 4 days. Has anything like ...

I'm trying to understand at a high level the relationship of aerosols to the global temperature and I'm new to these concepts.
I have Stratoshperic mean global AOD data from:
https://data.giss.nasa....

How has the increase in global CO2 been attributed to an anthropogenic cause?
It would seem to me that this could be definitively determined on the basis of placing gas spectrometers on the exhausts ...

I read the IPCC reports, I know global warming is happening and is man-made.
But as any skeptic should do periodically, I went to a few climate deniers websites and stumbled upon this peer-reviewed ...

Because I understand the mechanism of sea erosion as to take earth away from shorelines (and scatter it deep into the sea floor) and also to derive from climate crisis, I ask the following question:
...

CO2, methane and other gases contribute to the greenhouse effect.
But most of the greenhouse effect is caused by water vapour in the atmosphere. There is always a lot average moisture present, but it ...

I was reading this on realclimate.org.
My question on the below is this. Physics can tell you the radiative forcing of CO2, which is $\small\mathsf{5.35ln(Cnew/Cpreindustrial)}$. This tells you how ...

How much heat was released from the 2019-2020 Australian bush fires? And is that likely to have a measurable impact on global atmospheric heat content?
Maybe as a secondary question: How much impact ...

Today, the Argentinian meteorological service tweeted about a new temperature record for Antarctica of 18.3°C, made on the Espezanza peninsula. This was subsequently reported by many other sources.
...

I have seen ample consensus amongst reputable scientists that the earth is getting warmer, and this fact is due to human activity (e.g https://climate.nasa.gov/faq/17/do-scientists-agree-on-climate-...

I would like to assess climate change impacts on Protected Areas (e.g. natural reserves, national parks) for Mediterranean countries. I found easily future data from several Global Circulation Models ...

I've heard a bunch of impractical proposals for ways to sequester carbon: pump CO2 gas into the ground, grow trees for the sole purpose of burying them underground where they won't decompose... and ...

Could any of you, please, tell me who is the author of this book on Bill Maher's shelf? The book name is "Climate Science" and the cover color seems to be green. I looked for it on the Amazon website ...

Are there graphs with the median temperature development in the 20th century and if not, is there readily accessible data that can be used to calculate it?
Median is statistically more stable, at the ...

I am sure there are different methodologies to arrive at such a number. Can someone in layman terms describe some of the most widely used and trusted methods and what data are used? Sorry I am outside ...

The greenhouse effect analogy of global warming is that atmospheric carbon dioxide CO$_2$ absorbs some of the infrared radiation emitted by the Earth, and redirects a portion of that radiation back ...

My question refers to the current process of climate change. CO2 is rising, which leads to the greenhouse effect, which raises temperatures. This leads to more wildfires, which reduces number of trees,...

Why doesnt mankind "collect" thermal energy (there has to be some way: thermal couplings, detour over chemical energy, whatever) and after it has been concentrated at one point, turn it to electrical ...

Most of the commonly mentioned effects of the ongoing and predicted climate change are negative: more extreme weather effects, more destructive weather, more diseases, rapid extinctions, etc.
Why is ...

Given the vastness and intensity of the bushfires that have been going on in Australia for weeks now, to the point they are generating their own weather and having an impact thousands kilometers away ...

My questions are: is there a significant, joint, worldwide, inter-disciplinary, scientific effort to study (brainstorm) possible solutions to climate-change?
If it does exist, in whatever form, does ...

I am trying to study climate change and lately, I am realizing that oil companies were/are drilling for oils at Alaska, Arctic, Antarctica.
Where oil (which oil company drills) is used maximum for?
I ...

Due to IPCC the climate sensitivity of CO₂ very likely is 3.0 ± 1.5 ℃ for each doubling of the concentration of atmospheric CO₂.
Counting on earlier global warming using the Arrhenius formula [ΔT=λ·...

Albedo is a measure of the amount of light reflected back by an object that is incident on it.
So, high albedo means that a greater portion of light falling on something is reflected back. This also ...

I plotted the atmospheric CO2-concentrations to see trends and wondered especially about the phase around 1600 in the plot which I find very interesting. Etienne Godin already told me some facts in ...
